HOTTANKPRINCIPLESOFOPERATION


AllWaterlogicHotTankshaveabuilt‐inVentor
ExpansionChamberinthetopofthetankexceptfor
WL270(GF)units.

TheVentChamberallowsforexpansionofthewater
whenitisheated.

Thechambersareseparatedbyawelded‐intank
baffle.

Wateralwaysflowsintothebottomofthetankand
outthetoptothefaucet.

TheHotTankoutlettubehasarestrictorinitsbase.
Thisensuresthereservoirisalwaysfullbyallowing
morewaterinthanout.

Thereisasmallholeinthesideofthetankoutlettube
thatallowsairandwatertopassintothevent
chamberasitisheated.

Waterintheventchamberissuctionedbackthrough
theoutlettubeventholewhenwaterisdispensed.


HOTTANKDESCALING

TheHotTankrequiresremovalofmineraldeposits(descaling)onaregularbasis,dependingupon
filtrationandlocalwaterconditions.Descalingisanimportantprocessthatremovescalcium
deposits,orscale,thatcanbuildupinsideatankovertime.Calciumandscaleisnon‐toxicbutleft
unattended,itwillhinderyourunit’sperformance.

HotTankTroubleshooting:Hotwaterintermittentlyforcedoutthroughthefaucetisanindicator
thatdescalingisneeded.ThisoccurswhenscalehasdepositedontheexpansionslotinsidetheHot
Tankventchamberandblocksthenormalpathforwatertoexpand.

Descalingshouldtakeplaceevery6to12monthstopreservethelong‐termhealthofyourunit.Use
non‐toxiccleanersuchasScaleKleen,DEZCAL,20%CitricAcidSolution,orUndilutedVinegar
Solutiontoremovemineraldepositsasdirectedbythemanufacturer.
